I think this was fixed in rev. 1.13, committed on May 20, 2001.
I might be wrong, but my 4.4-STABLE send(2) manual page has the following
in the ERRORS section:
[ECONNREFUSED] The socket received an ICMP destination unreachable
message from the last message sent. This typically
means that the receiver is not listening on the remote
port.
This was even in 4.4-RELEASE :)
G'luck,
Peter
